Revere school building committee approves December invoice package

The Revere High School building committee approved three invoice packages totaling $1,071,173.56 during a joint meeting with the Revere School Committee on Jan. 22, 2025.

The payments covered consultant and preconstruction work as the project nears the end of design development: a Left Field invoice for $236,224; three Perkins Eastman invoices totaling $807,949.67; and Consigli Construction invoice number 24 for preconstruction services in the amount of $27,000.

Committee members said the invoices reflect work already underway as the design-development phase approaches completion. The meeting record shows committee members conducting roll-call votes for each invoice and recording affirmative votes from the committee members present.

The approvals followed staff comments that the project is near the end of design development — the design team was described as “getting close to the end of design development” — and that preconstruction services were ongoing. No objections or no-votes were recorded in the meeting transcript for the three motions.

The committee will present a more detailed budget and permitting update at the next joint meeting on Feb. 26, 2025.
